I just dont understand why people that look down on tattoo’s have to come into the “Tattoo” catagory and judge. Can some one answer this for me? Just because we have tattoo’s does NOT mean we have been in jail, dirty, tramp, loser, etc etc. How many times do we have to answer the same questions “why do you have tattoos” “how many and why”. I have tattoos because they are an outward show of my inner personality, they do not define who I am they only clarify what is already there.. Body ink is sexy, it makes a person stand out in a crowd (unless your at a tattoo convention, LOL). So once again: why are non-inked people so judgemental? You dont like my ink, dont look at it, and by all means DONT comment on it.

Meet Mr. “A”. “A” is 29 yrs old, good looking, intelligent, tattoo artist that’s also involved w/ politics & majored in biochem in college(quit college to be a tattoo artist, but he’s quite good though). He’s a “lady’s man.”
Last weekend, there was a very important tattoo convention for a company that he was starting to do work with. The person in charge of the convention paid for A’s airfare ticket so that “A” could travel for free & work this convention. The person in charge also spent a LOT of time & money putting “A” on the ads, website, etc. “A” knew this. The same day “A” was due to fly in for the convention, he wrote a simple e-mail saying “dude I don’t want to do this.” Now is he responsible enough to be having a kid??
Now meet Miss “B”. “B” is 24, has a Bachelor’s degree in biochem, also involved in political campaigns, has an artistic side like “A” but was too busy working her butt off at multiple boring jobs to ever pursue it(she came from poverty). “B” lives..

I have never been in a strip club. But last November I went to a hotel suite party at a tattoo convention in Virginia. They hired strippers to preform. They didn’t do anything but roll on the carpet and look silly. Some were missing numerous teeth.
My cousin is visiting this weekend and wants us to go to a strip club. Were these strippers just a rare exception, or should I save my money?
Serious responses only.

Im going to the Sydney tattoo convention this weekend.
I totally forgot it was on, so don’t have that much money in my bank.
Piercings are alot cheaper so i was thinking possibly my eyebrow, or my lip. Only problem is im a front office manager and i don’t think my boss would approve.
I would get a new tattoo, but then i would have no money for a couple days untill i get paid again, i jus cant decide what to get!
I guess im going to have to man up sooner or later, im planning on getting a full sleeve in the near future, sure my boss will love that!
BTW im 18/f.
